P.S.   Back in 1995, a new Pantera owner in PCNC actively wrecked his 
Pantera just a day after buying it, due to misunderstanding how the line lock 
worked.   He had the car parked on his sloped driveway, he popped it in neutral 
and it started to roll backwards.

He panicked, and flipped the line lock on.   Nothing happened because he 
wasn't stepping on the brakes.   So then he stepped on the brakes.   Nothing 
happened because he left the line lock on!

So the Pantera picked up speed, rolled backwards down his driveway--and 
crashed straight into the visiting insurance agent's car!!!!!   His insurance 
agent had come over to see the new car and establish its value for his new 
insurance policy!

DOH!
